Food Storage Tips
Food storage
Freezer Compartment
• The freezer is used for storing frozen food, freezing fresh
food, and making ice cubes.
• To freeze fresh food, ensure that as much of the surface
of the food as possible is in contact with the cooling
surface.
• Do not store fresh food next to frozen food as it can
thaw the frozen food.
• Before freezing fresh food, divide it into portions that
can be consumed in one sitting.
• Consume thawed frozen food within a short period of
time after defrosting
• Never place warm food in the freezer compartment as it
will thaw the frozen food.
• Always follow the manufacturer's instructions on food
packaging when storing frozen food. If no information
is provided food, should not be stored for more than 3
months from the date of purchase.
• When purchasing frozen food, make sure that it has
been stored under appropriate conditions and that the
packaging is not damaged.
• Frozen food should be transported in appropriate
containers and placed in the freezer as soon as possible.
• Do not purchase frozen food if the packaging shows
signs of humidity and abnormal swelling. It is probable
that it has been stored at an unsuitable temperature
and that the contents have deteriorated.
• The storage life of frozen food depends on the room
temperature, the thermostat setting, how often the
door is opened, the type of food, and the length of time
required to transport the product from the shop to your
home. Always follow the instructions printed on the
packaging and never exceed the maximum storage life
indicated.
• The maximum amount of fresh food (in kg) that can be
frozen in 24 hours is indicated on the appliance label.
• To use the maximum capacity of the freezer
compartment, use the glass shelves for the upper and
middle section, and use the lower basket for the bottom
section.
• To use the maximum load capacity of your freezer, and
to store large quantities of food, remove all drawers
except the bottom one. Large items can be stored
directly on the shelves.
• To use the maximum freezing capacity of your freezer
move the frozen food in the upper basket to other
baskets and activate "Super freeze" mode. "Super freeze"
mode will be deactivated automatically after 24 hours.
Place the food you want to freeze to the upper basket
of the freezer without exceeding the freezing capacity
of your freezer. Then reactivate the "Super freeze" mode.
You can put your food next to other frozen food after
it is completely frozen (minimum 24 hours after "Super
freeze" mode is activated for the 2nd time).
• To freeze a small amount of food (up to 3 kg) in your
freezer, place your food without touching already frozen
food and activate "Super freeze" mode. You can put your
food next to other frozen food after it is completely
frozen (after minimum 24 hours).
Attention. To save energy, when freezing small
n
n
amounts of food, reset the temperature to the
previous value as soon as the food is completely
frozen.
NOTE: If you attempt to open the freezer door immediately
after closing it, you will find that it will not open easily. This
is normal. Once equilibrium has been reached, the door will
open easily.
